|
||
| - Shell: Add inline running prompt with steer input — agent output is now rendered inside the prompt area while the model is running, and users can type and send follow-up messages (steers) without waiting for the turn to finish; approval requests and question panels are handled inline with keyboard navigation | ||
| - Core: Change steer injection from synthetic tool calls to regular user messages — steer content is now appended as a standard user message instead of a fake `_steer` tool-call/tool-result pair, improving compatibility with context serialization and visualization | ||
| - Wire: Add `SteerInput` event — a new Wire protocol event emitted when the user sends a follow-up steer message during a running turn |

The release notes bump to 1.21.0, but the kimi info reference docs still show example output with kimi-cli version: 1.20.0 (see docs/en/reference/kimi-info.md and docs/zh/reference/kimi-info.md). Please update those examples to 1.21.0 or switch them to a version placeholder so they don’t go stale each release.
